Patent attributes
A remote access locking system and transportable secure containers are provided with a wireless key fob and optional tamper alarm, location transponder and reversible coupling to secure the container to a vehicle element or to a mounting plate that is fixed to the vehicle. The wireless fob sends wireless command signals to a controller that authenticates the signal and locks or unlocks the container door. The controller may also have a sound generator configured to produce a characteristic chirp when the lock is locked or unlocked by the controller that is different from the vehicle door chirp. The wireless fob for the container may stand alone or have a coupling joining the container fob with a conventional wireless entry fob for a vehicle. The system may also use secondary security measures such as RFID tags for two step authentication.
